Characterisation of the subgrain structure in friction stir welded aluminium alloys using the SEM-EBSD technique

Article

Frigaard O., Grong O., Hjelen J., Gulbrandsen-Dahl S., Midling O.T. 1st International Symposium 1999

The thermal stability of the microstructure in the plastically deformed region of aluminium alloy friction stir welds was investigated. Alloys 6082-T6 (Al, 0.62-0.70%Mg, 0.95-1.05%Si, 0.50-0.57%Mn, 0.15-0.23%Fe) and 7108-T79 (Al, 5.20-5.70%Zn, 0.70-…

Corrosion behaviour of laser treated friction stir welds in high strength aluminium alloys

Article

Hannour F., Davenport A.J., Williams S.W., Morgan P.C., Figgures C.C. 3rd International Symposium 2001

The effects of laser surfacing on the microstructure and corrosion properties of friction stir welds in 6.34 mm (0.25 in) thickness plates of aluminium alloys 2024-T351 and 7010-T7651 were studied. Specimens were laser surfaced using an excimer lase…

Comparison and evaluation of the complete production chain for friction stir welding - methods and a case study

Article

Bergmann J.P., Schurer R., Luhn T., von Strombeck A., Meyer A., Witte K.H., Goecke S.F. 11th International Symposium 2016

An investigation was undertaken into the efficiency and cost effectiveness of two process chains for the production of an AW-70xx aluminium alloy telescopic beam for a crane boom (length 8 m, sheet thickness 4 mm), and a comparison between friction …

Characterisation of the deformation microstructure in friction stir welded 7075 T6 aluminium alloy using the SEM-EBSD technique

Article

Karlsen M., Tangen S., Hjelen J., Frigaard O., Grong O. 3rd International Symposium 2001

The deformation microstructures formed during friction stir welding (FSW) of 7075-T6 aluminium alloy (Al, 5.76%Zn, 2.46%Mg, 1.32%Cu) were studied using SEM with electron back-scattered diffraction. The sheet thickness was 1.5 mm. The alloy was evalu…
